Anybody considering custom strings this year? This was a fun video to make watching the whole process go down. TC & DS
How would one go about getting a custom set from Spokane valley archery? I messaged them on Instagram without response which is understandable
Yes i want custom strings for my prime cenergy
@@jordanpowell228 Give them a phone call - 509-924-3364 and ask for MFJJ!
Just swapped string and cables on my evoke.... next time coming to SVA
I make my own strings now. I had a buddy give me his string jig and I just think it’s fun to always mess with new stuff. Can MFJJ send a picture of that chart that shows the amount of twists for string length?
Mfjj is the one bloke on this planet id be very proud to have him work on my bow
Man of many talents and true passion for it
Hats off to Josh Jones
You can tell MFJJ truly loves what he does! Awesome dudes.
People need to watch this video...and then go back and watch all of MFJJ's archery advice videos. The man knows his stuff.
Every time I watch a video of you doing something different it makes me want to move there just so you could work on my bow all the time. 😂😂😂😊
Wish I had some one as knowledgeable in my area. Would love to go make a string and be involved in the whole process, be thankful for this guy...he is an archery wizard.
I have built custom strings for my local pro shops since 1991 and enjoy seeing how you do it today. The materials have improved and more tooling is available for excellent string jigs. The process is like building your own custom arrows ... takes more time but you totally understand how to make your archery more consistent.
JJ you're so totally zen while you're building strings. In your zone. You make it look so easy. Insane skill buddy! Thanks for sharing the video.
You unbelievably all the talent and knowledge God has truly blessed you with a great gift
This is super impressive.
great video. Gives me a greater appreciation for the time and dedication that goes into building strings. Thanks!
Thanks Ryan!
Your lucky to have a pro shop of that quality close to you. They are a dying breed, but sooooo nice to have. Pretty cool video, really enjoy your content.
Awesome video guys I’m new into archery and think all yer videos are brilliant for people to watch and learn 👍👍
Thanks Bruce!
Ok. Yea. I'm definitely gonna have to get my strings from MFJJ my next round round of Strings. Awesome!
Fascinating and fantastic! Thanks for a peek into the art of string making
That was fascinating, possibly the best video yet.
We were hoping the archery community would appreciate a little BTS 🤘
I came here ready to learn and got completely distracted by…”BOING!!!! She Tight!”🤣
This is impressive! One of the coolest things to see, a bow string made. josh does it well
Every time I watch a video at the shop it reminds me how behind shops in my area are.
yeah, good shops are hard to find. we are lucky 🙏
Always nice to see a professional at work.
MFJJ making SABS! (Sweetassbowstrings)
People have got to appreciate the knowledge skill and equipment here.
10:00, my damn ears in the car ride to work! Woke me up better than coffee but I’ll be deaf for the next hour
Lol... we'll do better next time! Appreciate the honest feedback.
@@ElkShape haha its cool, yall bringing some really good content. Never seen anyone show how strings are made (atleast never searched it). Good thing im subscribed haha
That was an outstanding video. Your content and quality are great. Keep it. Up. God Bless
appreciate that my friend!! 🤘🤘
SWEET.....so COOL
Great video guys, very educational. Thanks.
Great video actually watched the whole thing
me too lol
very cool video, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Now that was a cool video. Never knew how much went behind making strings. That was very informative
Mathews Rueben!???
@@TimConnor13 make it happen!!!
Great job.
Can't wait to watch, currently in the process of building a string jig 🤙
Seriously that is cool
Awesome video as always!! Wish I lived closer. Would definitely buy my new bow from MFJJ. Wealth of knowledge and passion for his trade and skill shows.👍
Love the videos you’re doing in the shop and at the range. Very educational and very much appreciated!! Thank you!
Great video ! The next time I’m around northern Idaho I’ll be going in for sure
Great interesting video💪👍 keep up the great work 🙏🏼 from the UK
Another great video. Get to see something you don't see everyday.
Cool video. Always wondered what all was involved making custom strings. 👍
that was awsum to watch and learn
Awsome video on string makeing!
@elkshape still here just super busy with things these days!
this was so sick! i need a new set on my vertix
heck yeah! Awesome video!!!!! This was awesome to see how a string is made!!!!
thought a few archers might enjoy!
@@ElkShape Absolutely!!!!!
“Is she tight?”...edit!... Hahaha!
Great video guys keep up the good work 👍👍
dont even know if I need new strings.... but I want some now. haha
same!
Love these kind of videos appreciate you putting out the content
Dan love the video seeing how everything is done was really cool I want to get new strings but I don't like the idea of mailing my bow in but if I drove there would it be possible getting strings made and put on. On the same day.
Call the boys at SVA 🤘
This information is incredible!
Wish I had a local shop that made strings they just order. Hell I can do that.
Awesome work !!
Great video!!!
The loops with which the bowstring is attached to the block must also be served.
This was a awesome video!!!!
This was down right awesome. I wonder how much it would cost to have MFJJ to build a string for my bow. Great content
Such a cool video.
Loved the video!!!
What diameter heat shrink tubing do you use when doing the speed nocks?
Can you go into more detail about building strings, specifically, you said white strings are the "strongest" because it has no dyes; but then you covered it with yellow string. What was the point in that? Just to protect the strings?
awesome video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Btw those strings are legit!!!
Can you do a video on your truck hunting rig anything special on the trucks for hunting 🤔
Can you get that helical with a bitzenburger jig...not sure what degree that is but its definetly more then what I thought I could get with my bitz
Awesome he's good he knows what he's doing lol
I went with GAS Ghost but next time I’m going with MFJJ.
Question @ 1:25 is only string okay to change out vs. all string/cables together, (or is this short term vs. long term), what’s best protocol? (Tks!)
Awesome job man. One question could you guys do a two color string to see that process of possible? Keep up the great work.
Same way just stop at half and do another half with different color.
So if I'm understanding correctly you prefer doing strings in a right twist due to the way the material is?
Look up bloodline fibers there fibers you don’t need to wax so it’s a wax less bowstring
Fascinating process and seeing it done by a pro. Great vid, really interesting. A question;...what were those little thingy mabobbers that you crimped onto the string and covered in shrink tube? Their purpose?
Those are called speed nocks.
@@joeversus2893 That tells me what they are. Doesn't answer my other question tho.
@@greatwhitenorth762 they are called speed nocks because they increase speed of the strings. Picking up extra 4fps around there and stopping vibration as your adding weight to the ends of the strings.
@@joeversus2893 Cool. thanks, i appreciate the replies.
What’s a round about price for a set of custom strings when u send it to jj
why are you wearing a bino harness indoors
Once u put in twists won’t that make the string shorter than it’s supposed to be
I had a brand new Triax when they first came out. I shot it a lot and it ate through 2 strings in less than a year right at the peep sight! On the second string I had them put in a different peep sight thinking that was the problem, still ate up the string. I never moved it around! I loved the Triax but I sold it after that! I think they just have too much pressure on the string being that short. I never had that problem with the longer axle to axle models! Has anyone else had this problem with the 27in and 28in bows from Mathews?
I'm having the exact problem as you right now that's how I got to this video. I'm about to sell a great bow because no strings will hold up
@@brandonhall5561 That sucks man! I almost wonder if these guys never have that problem because they put on custom strings and get a new Bow every year. So they don’t have them long enough to experience that problem. 30 inches or longer is the axle to axle length I stick with now.
I want to know where I can get the right sized heat shrink tube that I can get a customize print. Any ideas
What type of serving materiel do you use ? LOOP, End serving, Center serving. What diameter ? Thank
Where do i go to send my bow to have put strings on for me thanks
What fixed blade broadheads would you recommend. In the market for some good ones so any suggestions would help. Thanks
Why doesn’t podium make strings anymore ?
Why were the brass nocking points installed on the string and then shrink tubed? Was the purpose to add weight as a means of noise dampening?
Thanks
Those are speed nocks, their purpose is to stabilize the string and it speeds up the arrow
I've been watching alot of your guys videos lately, especially the ones a out tuning, FOC, arrow weight and stuff like that and I gotta say... Either MFJJ is an archery tech guru master wizard... Or he is one hell of a convincing faker with all sorts of fancy terms lol. How can I send this guy my bow to get restrung and tuned?
Love how you have your bino harness around your neck in the bow shop!! 🤦♂️
I was out shooting the range - should I take it off for you? -DS. PS - this is why I hardly read comments on here cuz it makes my brain hurt
@@ElkShape just giving you shit bro it’s all good.
Does the shop sell strings?!
is it necessary to install back speed nocks on a custom string set? my pro shop told me i dont need it but it came with my standard bow . im confused.
It should have them. I'm sure you already resolved this, but figured I'd respond just in case.
7:49 thats what she said
Lol yes
Other than age and color change why would some one change there strings?
I've heard you have to stretch strings at 300 lbs for 24 hrs, you say 45 mins., Who's right?
I'm surprised that he serves strings that soon after stretching. I usually wait a few hours for the fibers to relax, double check the string length at 100#, then stretch to 400 and serve.
How long do you usually go before changing them again? Speaking of the ones you've made your way.. if say you did quite a bit of practice shots and then used for hunting, would you go a year or more? I'm being told that I should change my PSE freak sp set every year, bow is set at 68lbs and 31 DL shooting gold tips 340 with 100g field tips and broadheads with the lighted nocks, full length
I swap them once a year, or if I find another color combo that I like
@@Mac2118 ok, thank you for that information, I will look into purchasing a few extra sets to have on hand for that reason
No wonder they’re so expensive.. a lot of work
If u keep moving ur peep to fight the string angle get a loner ata bow not sure what the fad woth short short bows are
MFJJ does not serve the loops of the cables. this is not a judgement but an observation as of 13:41 min of watching. Do they need to be served? You decide.
nah, just slap some chapstick on it!
the video is nice. but that focus gave me headaches. Work on that. following
she tight
From my experience colored vs natural strings both acts the same. No difference in strength or performance.
What diameter serving do you use on your strings?
